Torah Studies:
Humash
Throughout the four years of high school, our students study Bereishit, Shemot, Va’Yikra, and Devarim. Through these studies, they gain insight into the lives of the Patriarchs, Matriarchs, Moshe Rabbenu, and many other great Jewish role models. Our students learn to appreciate the wisdom of the Torah and benefit on a personal level by studying it.
Navi
In our Navi classes, our students study the Early and Later Prophets, the Five Megillot, and Jonah with an emphasis on the lives and struggles that our prophets and nation went through. Our Rabbis help our students incorporate the values learned through these classes into their daily lives.
Mishna & Gemara
Our Torah Sheba’al Peh program challenges our students on all levels. They learn and analyze both the Mishna and Gemara commentaries in detail. This allows our students to understand the development of Jewish Halacha. Over the course of four years, our students learn the skills one needs in order to read, analyze, and truly delve into the depths of the Talmud.
Halacha
Our Halacha curriculum is geared towards teaching our students practical halachic laws that pertain to their daily lives. Topics covered include the laws of Shabbat, Teffilah, Kashrut, Laws of Business, and Holidays.
